A tanker operated by global bunker supplier Monjasa has participated in an anti-piracy training operation in the Gulf of Guinea.

Forces from the Togo Navy boarded theĀ Monjasa RangerĀ as part of a recent training operation, Monjasa said in a LinkedIn post on Monday.

"The Togolese Navy Forces practiced their anti-piracy skills and equipment during a vessel boarding operation performed at high speed," the company said.

"With 10 Monjasa tankers supplying bunkers across West Africa, we are determined to promote all types of anti-piracy collaboration to protect the seafarers and shipping industry in the region."

Monjasa is a signatory to the Gulf of Guinea Declaration, calling for further naval support in the region to combat piracy.
